This message is adressed to all Valve employees, for such an amazing work that you do for us.

Your games, each of them is even better and more exciting than the
previous one, with characters and their personalities
worthy of the best kind of praise, with which a significant
part of our lives was spent.

We want to thank every person that works in this unique game development
company, that we think is the best of all.
Thank you for your work, your inspiration, and your memorable games.

I'm guessing this is the next way to pry info from Valve because the "occupy Half-Life 2" stunt didn't work out. I'm guessing you're hoping Valve will give us some info by sucking up to them as much as possible?

speaking of valve thanking, I had a dream last night that I whent to gabe's house accidentally and he had a whole bunch of christmas presents that were half life related that he gave me. He was pretty chill.

Don't you think you're going a bit overboard when you dream about the CEO of your favourite game production company?

Nah man, that was just the Christmas party at Valve. Everybody ever got invited to Valve headquarters and had an awesome time because Gabe is cool like that, but he had to wipe their memories because some drunk asshat showed them Half-Life 3.

-That Operation Crowbar? ---> Again, they answered to the fact : 1) they received the crowbars, 2) they will make something of them, 3) they even posted some photos of the crowbars next to Portal 2 awards, or for cutting chocolate.
But still : NOTHING about HL3.

-That current HL CFC?? ---> N.O.T.H.I.N.G.

How a "thank you Valve" action is going to help us??

....

OK, in fact I "see" the true objective of the OP is just to thank Valve... Yeah, thank Valve... Go thank this developer who has published fifty-awarded GOTY games, has sold millions of their games, gain massive money from their Steam platform...

Everyday the community is "thankful". We're not talking about that poor Raven Software company who completly fell into oblivion despite their sympathetic Singularity game, and the SoF series...

Jesus, I can also add that we have the biggest modding community of the VG world, numerous people who work every day since more than 10 years, working their ass off and sometimes doing extremely long and complex remakes and enhancements of the original games and add-ons...

So yeah, our "thanks" to Valve are already and since a decade, far beyond the words.

I will only agree with one part: We should be sympathetic for Raven Software. They made pretty awesome games, now they're just a COD map factory. :(

SoF (the first one) was my favorite FPS with HL at this time. And Besides SoF2, no FPS were THIS violent.

Shooting enemies in the balls, blowing their guts out, seeing them choke after cutting their throats... This was so fun.
And the story of SoF1 and 2 was so cliché that I occasionnaly bursted in laughs.

Don't you think you're going a bit overboard when you dream about the CEO of your favourite game production company?

because we totally have control over the DMT trip we experience at night. No fact is we dream we cannot simply just make a specific dream, sure we could control what happens in it but 99% of the people cannot do this so in terms with that how can you just say that he is going overboard with a dream he pretty much had no control over?
